I received a call from BetIslands stating that they will have the free 1/2 point again this year. However, all wagers have to be made Tue-Friday. I'm sure there is good reason for it but I'm the type who really doesn't place a wager until closer to game time due to injuries, suspensions, etc.. I really wish they would reconsider this option but I'm guessing they won't.

#7It is sick value in hoops(a line already a half point off then you take another one free), 14 is a great number to get a half point off of that they give you in footballOriginally posted by Awesome-Owell then what's the point?Comment -

Amazing that people will actually bitch about not getting a free hook right before kickoff. Are you bitching that all your other books don't have a free hook at all? I didn't think soComment -

#18Originally posted by TryingMyBestContacted them and asked about it. Even transferred to someone who "knew more about it". Yes, on and off 7 is fineI would get it in writing because I am almost positive they will not do free 1/2 point on +-7 AND +-3. I remember last year lots of games at @+6.5 and I wanted to make it +7 and other games at -3.5 and I wanted to make it -3 and the system did not allow it. It blocked out the free 1/2 point on spreads of (2.5 to 3.5) and (6.5 to 7.5). And if this is the case again this year, I recommend denying the free 1/2 point so that you can use the regular/standard system and BUY the 1/2 point when needed.Originally posted by Awesome-Ooh well then maybe I will put some dough there...
If what you say is true, then that is awesome and please disregard what I have typed above. I just want to save you the headache if it is the same as last year when you try to get that -7 down to -6.5 for and it doesnt work.Comment -

its not a scared move imo, its a smart one. if they gave everyone a free .5 on all spreads they would get crushed and probably go broke so long term its better to have limits. You can do some damage with free .5 pts if you line shop and have many outsComment -

#25You jerkoffs love these free half point promos. Here's the question you need to ask yourself. How often does the free point come in to play? It's not even a promo. If you don't have a clue you will lose free half point or not.Comment -

#27bro. a free half point is the same as buying a a half-point, but the kicker is, its free. radical right?Originally posted by ApricotSinner32You jerkoffs love these free half point promos.

if Oregon is -14.5 at -110 and I want it at -14, it would usually cost me -130 to buy it at -14 but in the case of a free half point, it cost nothing. sweet right?
If you think half points don't come into play, you do not wager american football. Keep jerkin bro.Comment -

#31Yes there are alot of hidden rules at this book yes it is a good book the best is the 20 percent monthly rebate...But there are a few rules which are kinda hidden and they dont offer overnight lines which is already discussed....First on the payouts the limit you can request withdrawl via ** is 1k limit max....Also if you request a check payout all checks are processed on Mondays and must be requested by the Friday before...So lets say for football you have a good run and wanna check processed because once again ** limit is 1k on Monday your check will not be processed till the following Monday and than will take 3 to 4 days from than so really a week and a half for a check.Originally posted by TheGamblerAs mentioned earlier, I double checked and the only number not allowed is 3.
